We introduce improvements in the service we provide to our clients, particularly in the monitoring service, with the use of MrLooquer technology, and we reinforce the security of the system for sharing documentation.

LEET Security's cybersecurity rating methodology is developed cyclically, with annual audits being the fundamental means of granting the rating, but not the only one. As described in the rating guide, the services are subject to monitoring throughout its validity.

One of the components of this continuous monitoring consists of the digital supervision of the entity, which has been carried out by reviewing "pastebines" type forums. To have a better perspective on this aspect, we have signed an agreement with the Dualogy company, for the use of its MrLooquer tool, which allows us to monitor the footprint of our clients on the Internet and to know, in ...

The security of the supply chain is becoming one of the most important aspects on the agenda of many organizations. This may be due to regulatory impositions, as is the case of financial institutions, on the part of both the European Central Bank (ECB) and the European Banking Authority (EBA), or also due to a growing awareness of the impact that the supply chain has on the business itself. And this awareness has a lot to do with the application of the European General Data Protection Regulation, which explicitly obliges the controllers to ensure that the third parties to whom they subcontract the processing of the data in their possession comply with the security measures that the responsibles should demand them.

Although, in fact, the concern for the supply chain extends beyond the personal data, since from that chain also ...
